exercise progress

I felt as if I wasn’t improving my running because I couldn’t finish a mile more quickly. :dunno: My friends told me to see how long I could go (endurance) instead of how little time it takes to cover a given distance (speed). Instead of 12 minutes, I gave myself 15 min to run at a 5 mph pace. It was so much more comfortable than pushing myself to go faster than I could. yay!
